The risk
The product poses a serious risk of injuries because the front low arm of the suspension might present cracks at the joining points with the silent-blocks. This deviation from the manufacturers’ specifications can lead to a reduction of the stability levels of the vehicle, causing the driver to lose the ability to direct the car properly or in the worst case to loose the control of the vehicle.
